DR. J. Neil Jensen, associate professor of zoology, reported on his continuing genetic studies of the mice in the opening lecture of the monthly Sigmas Xi lecture series at WSC. He said about 3,500 years ago a dry period shrank the lake until it probably amounted to little more than pools in the deeper parts. At that time the mice could migrate between the islands and the mainlands.

DAVID Halberstam, whose reports from Saigon in 1962 and 1963 For example, there is a closer relationship between the mice on Bird Island, where his study has been mostly centered, and the nearby mainland than between mice on Bird Island and the north tip of the Gunnison mountain range. DISTINCT species of kangaroo rats is found in about an acre tract on the south end of Bird Island which amounts to an endangered species as it drops on some years to probably 10 to 12 rats. and many of Bird Island the other islands such as Gunnison, Fremont and Carrington carry mice populations two or three times what would be expected. Thai situation appears all the more remarkable when it is considered that the islands A - are generally quite bare and appear to offer little in the way of food supply or water. ONE possible explanation of what supports the mice may come from the brine fly winrows along the beaches which may get to be a foot or so tall and seem to be utilized for much of the year by the mice, Dr. Jensen said. Water probably comes from dew, he said. High waves which come occasionally throw salty spray over nearly all of a small 22 acre island like Bird. which CORMORANTS, used to nest heavily on Bird Island and helped to give it its name, disappeared around 1965 in a dry period when the island was invaded from the mainland by coyotes and other predators.

He said the country is like a giant being bled to death by its economic lifeblood flowing to the OPEC countries. As its economic power diminishes, its military might will go the same route, he said. great many IN ADDITION to the critical economic situation, the country needs to learn that it cannot wisely elect presidents on the basis of the pleasantness and handsomeness of the image they project over television. Vastly more important may be a candidates ability to move the right levers, wheel and deal, and acquit himself nicely in the tougn infighting which is constantly going on in the arenas of power. ALL THE candidates now in sight for both parties are primarily those with nice media images, rather than those who can endure the stress of reality and be capable and tough administrators. The media have moved into a number of vacuums in modern political life and as a result now have more power than they probably should have, Mr. Halberstam said. SOME DAY the media may rue the role it has more or less been forced to play, he said. President Carter, he said, is an example of a man essentially made by the media who finds much more difficulty in managing reality Monday. Dr. and Mrs. Phillip R.

THE MEDIA have helped make our society more volatile in a dangerous way and more subject to sudden waves of emotion. If the press loses its freedom in this country, it will have itself mostly to blame, Mr. Halberstam said. There is too much emphasis on profit in both television and the print media. NOT ENOUGH money is being plowed back into the gathering and presenting of. vital news, he declared.
